Benefits of technology

[0018]The present invention aims at realizing a liquid crystal display apparatus capable of displaying an image with a high quality and with a high response speed for various liquid crystal panels and display modes by designing the apparatus in view of the panel temperature and the temperature characteristics of the liquid crystal composition.
[0049]With the image shifting device of the present invention, it is possible to realize a high response speed by eliminating the non-uniformity in the liquid crystal response in the panel by controlling the temperature of the liquid crystal panel in an optimal temperature range. By applying the image shifting device of the present invention to an image display apparatus such as a projection type liquid crystal display apparatus, the display quality thereof can be improved.

Problems solved by technology

State-of-the-art liquid crystal display apparatuses do not provide a sufficient response speed at intermediate gray levels, whereby after-image phenomenon, and the like, are observed when displaying moving images.
However, these approaches require complicated panel designs.

Abstract

A liquid crystal display device includes a first substrate, a second substrate opposing the first substrate, a liquid crystal layer provided in a gap between the first substrate and the second substrate, and a temperature adjustment member formed on the first substrate and / or the second substrate. The panel temperature T (° C.) of the liquid crystal display device is controlled to be equal to or greater than TNI-65 and less than or equal to TNI-15, where TNI (° C.) is the nematic-isotropic phase transition temperature of the liquid crystal composition of the liquid crystal layer.
